If needed, I am all in favor of a complete removal of pam-fprint. Here we are, given that pam-fprintd has been in the archive since 2012-05-21. About the bugs present in pam-fprint: #469059: reassigned to libpam-fprintd #578858: to be closed with the removal (pam-fprintd works fine) #597285: reassigned to libpam-fprintd #606381: to be closed with the removal (pam-fprintd stores fingerprints in /var/lib/fprint/) #633633: to be closed with the removal (pam-fprintd supports that device) Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca pgp24f4YgwTXM.pgp Description: PGP signature

What's the plan for wheezy? Waiting for Dererk to reply, here what I can say. The situation has not changed so much, according to the upstream News section: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/fprint News * 2008-11-23: Bastien Nocera has been doing a lot of work on fprintd and has put out a request for testing in Fedora. Please note, however, that the mailing list as well as the Git repositories are still active: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fprint/ http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint/ http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libfprint/fprintd/ So, basically, we should move to fprintd (and pam-fprintd).
